We aren't qualified to hazard a guess about what's going on here. You really need to ask your doctor about this. I've not heard of vibrating and jerking with a migraine like this. I'm not saying it's not possible, but you really need to sort this out with your doctor, who knows your history and can examine you.

I am a desperate woman fighting for my life. I am fighting to live my life. I am fighting to not be consumed by pain and

the midst of a disease that tries to take all that away from me.
The hardest fight I
have ever fought!
As you are probably well aware, Rheumatoid Arthritis is a
constant fight and a constant struggle. If
you allow it to, RA can take everything away from you. It can take your happiness and your
hopes. It can take your dreams. It can take your mobility.
When I was first diagnosed you could have definitely said that I was losing my fight against RA. I cried all day every day. Every day was a “couch day” for me. You know, the kind of day that you want to lie on the couch all day long
with the covers over your head, cry, and wish away RA. Rheumatoid Arthritis had taken away my
happiness. I never left the house… EVER! I sta...

On Friday, October 17th, National Mammography Day , Cancer Vixen partnered with New York City Council Speaker Christine Quinn, the American Cancer Society and St. Vincent's Hospital Manhattan at a press conference, to launch the "No Breast Left Behind" campaign. The "No Breast Left Behind" campaign, will raise awareness of the importance of funding mammograms for uninsured and underinsured women, a group more than twice as likely to be diagnosed with advanced stage breast cancer. I designed a limited edition "No Breast Left Behind" t-shirt for sale on the American Cancer Society's Hope Shop at www.TheHopeShop.org/cancervixen .
I gave a t-shirt to Speaker Christine Quinn. (Pictured with me and the tee below.) The rest of you are going to have to cough up 20 bucks - and when you do, you'll feel great getting it and wearing it. The proceeds will help fund screenings for uninsured and underinsured women in New York City and the Hudson Valley.
Speaker Christine Quinn is phenomenal not ju...
